That's a ridiculous way to make a point. Being blunt and calling someone a "fucking idiot" are not the same thing.

No WYSIWYG. Virtually all raw HTML. Treehouse was decent when it launched, and I imagine it's improved a solid amount by now. If you're coming from a development background, you'll do fine. If you're building true front-

That's off-topic. We're talking about touchscreen keyboards, as is very clear in my post, and we won't pretend their keys sink.

So type on the table? Seriously, wouldn't that be the same amount of feedback as a touchscreen keyboard? Flat, and you get the wrong letter when you miss?

"Discover amazing careers you should totes apply for" This doesn't seem in-sync with your overall tone of trying to inspire me to be courageous. Plus, it makes me quit thinking about me, and start thinking about the author.

Language speed is notoriously hard to compare. Benchmarks often highlight one fast or slow component of a language and don't give a good idea of actual performance.

Can't you share updates with less details to avoid feeling like a braggart? For instance: "We're on pace to double last year's six-digit revenue and holding steady at a 25% gross margin." Or talk to friends who can

I don't. The idea that some players' skill is so low that their ability is indistinguishable from pure luck does not diminish the idea that basketball is very much a skill-based game.

Being a complete nobody is not reflective of one's skill. That said, luck is the primary influence of outcome given a small enough time frame. It's also possible to have your mistakes "fixed" by luck. Moneymaker was not

@zep Of course feel players are doing EV analysis, but that's 99% about estimating hand ranges properly. The math is certainly the most simplistic part of the analysis.

@zep No, the cards you "expect" will not come out "more often" after millions of hands. They will come out exactly as often as they're supposed to. Whether or not a card will come out when you place your wager is st

I imagine that means that often, someone who would have won folded to a raise pre-flop, or on the flop, etc. Later their flush (or whatever) came in, but they weren't in the hand any longer. Two players showed down, but they were the p

This is not a rule. A lot of the players don't use much math--basic pot odds. They develop a feel for when they're making the right play, and openly admit to being "feel" players. I do believe they would be very good at

By that reasoning, basketball is a game of chance, depending on the level of the players. They're going to lob it up there and hope it goes in. But their lob was a skill--one they don't control very well, but a skill nevertheless.

Any game where you can play badly on purpose has skill involved. Some games still involve more luck than skill--blackjack, for instance. Other games involve more skill than luck, and poker certainly falls into that category. Poker is a game
